\---- My message ----  
Here are my steps to reproduce, formatted as Markdown:  
```  
$ node --version  
v7.0.0-head  
```  
Inside of `$ emacs -Q` (but also emacs with my ~/.emacs.d):  
```  
;; can be eshell, or M-! or whatever to spawn a process  
M-x eshell  
$ node -e 'console.log("hello")` # or any other way to start node binary  
abort trap: 6  
```  
  
This behaviour is not the case when starting the node binary from any  
other shell or process - but every time I start it as a child of Emacs.  
It happens when starting node from within bash under `M-x term`, but not  
from iTerm2 or Terminal.app.  
  
OS version: Mac os X 10.11.4 (15E65).

That's a very searchable error message.
Apparently fixed 2 weeks ago:

Thanks, that illustrates the issue nicely. Although this appears to be a 
bug outside Emacs that has been fixed in Node.js upstream, it's easy to 
work around the problem, so I installed the attached into Emacs master 
and am marking this bug report as done.
